NOISE: Paolo Banchero and Jamahl Mosley RESPOND and REFUTE the rumors | Paolo Banchero STEPS UP

A lot of noise and rumors have surrounded the Orlando Magic as they have struggled this year. They are working to silence those doubts on the court first but they have also silenced the doubts at the press table.

Both Paolo Banchero and Jamahl Mosley refuted suggestions that the two were not seeing eye to eye as the Magic try to get out of this rut. The frustration may still be palpable, but the Magic feel they are on the right track and moving in the right direction.

Banchero is certainly doing his part on the court now. He has stepped up his game and looks more like the All-Star player who finished last season, delivering the Magic into the Playoffs yet again.

  1. Tiresome. Two things can be true. Offense under Mos is uninspired and unwatchable. Let’s see what the narrative is after the next three games.

  2. We have 7 games before the break. This will determine if Mosley finishes the year or not. Still mad at Franz and his priorities.

  3. Franz sacrificing his teams season to play in Berlin is an issue nobody is talking about i appreciate you bringing it up.

  4. Franz is definitely a 2-way player
doesn’t get enough credit for his defense imo

  5. P5 basically said it doesn’t matter if we like each other or not we’re all here working towards the ultimate goal

  6. Mosley doesnt seem like a bad coach but he does not fit paolo and paolo is the key player hes your tmac your penny your Shaq and if yall dont get a new coach that can help paolo take that next step its all a failure. A top 3 seed does nothing its all about the players

  7. You can tell the magic have a leadership problem and it’s more so the players than the coaches. Who are the leaders of the team? I see a bunch of nice guys who are good players but sometimes someone has to be the asshole and hold each other accountable. I wish Paolo would step up and take that role, he’s a beast of a player but he ain’t a dawg yet.

  8. @lockedonmagic, I will not trade Paolo for Giannis, Giannis has a caft strain and we dont know if it is connected with the Achilles, Paolo is being a dog in the last 3 games. The problem is Mosley and assistant coaches, they dont trust the players and dont know how to rotate and match the players, this guys are young, why they are not running the floor, I saw a 37 year old Curry run through the whole team in their last meeting. Rotate the 5 players every 5 minutes, PLAY AND USE ALL THE PLAYERS, that means keep playing JI, Goga, Silva, Richardson, Robinson, Cain, Mo, Jett, (EVERYONE). The big reason that Orlando won the last game was bcs he played JI, every 5 minutes you will have fresh legs (have you ever seen Hockey rotation) thats the same way Mosley needs to rotate Orlando

  9. This team has gotten real expensive and have not made the advancement management expected.
    Shooting is still below average.
